"first look" is up next. >> good tuesday morning. right now on "first look," mirandized and charged in the indictment ahead, the charge against the marathon bombing suspect is building with the carjacking victim ready to testify that they carried tout attack. in boston, the strike spills over into the immigration reform debate. project smooth, supposed al qaeda train froorists busted boarding a train between toronto and new york. 19-year-old joe dzhokhar tsarnaev remains in hospital, now charged with using a weapon

of mass destruction. this as the city of boston tries to move on, holding a memorial for the third victim, boston university grad student liu ling zu. moments of silence were held around the country monday in boston. people gathered around the finish line to mark the time when the first bomb exploded. president obama also noted the time at the white house as did traders on the floor of the new york stock exchange. nbc news justice correspondent pete williams has the very latest. >> at 2:38 last monday afternoon, 11 minutes before the first bomb goes off the fbi says, a surveillance camera catches dzhokhar tsarnaev and tamerlan tsarnaev walking towards the finish line with backpacks, a second and crucial piece of video, the fbi says, comes from a surveillance camera mounted on this restaurant.

at 2:42, court documents say the still unreleased video shows dzhokhar tsarnaev with a backpack walked towards the scene of a second bombing. at 2:45, he slips his backpack off. still photos show the backpack on the ground at his feet. when the first bomb goes off, the fbi says, the video shows the crowd looking towards the finish line in alarm. but the fbi says tsarnaev virtually alone among the individuals in front of the strauvent appears calm. he walks away, it says, without his backpack, and ten seconds later, the second bomb goes off in the spot where he left the backpack. the fbi says both the marathon bombs were made with pressure cookers and metal bee-bees. they contained hobby fuse similar to this. at the scene of thursday night's shootout in watertown, investigators say they found another bomb and hobby fuse and

bee-bees. the fbi says they searched dzhokhar tsarnaev's dorm room and found bee-bees in what they call a large pyrotechnic and found a white hat and black jacket, resembling what was worn by the man in the suspect photos released by the fbi. a former federal prosecutor says it's a surprising startling start. >> they took a great unknown, which was last monday and made it virtually unknown a week later. that for the entirety of the law enforcement should be combhited to their efforts. >> court documents contain new details about thursday night's carjacking. the fbi show tamerlan and dzhokhar tsarnaev in cambridge at a gas station where they drove with the owner of the suv they carjacked. one began the carjacking by pointing a gun at the driver and saying, "did you hear about the boston explosion? i did get" the carjacker showed the driver he had bullets in his gun according to fbi and said,

"i'm serious." at the shooting in watertown where tamerlan was killed, other explosives were found. a boston police commissioner says that's one reason he thinks the brothers planned other attacks. >> we got to step over some unexploded devices that they threw at the officers and i can only understand from that that they had other targets. they were going other places. >> that's nbc news' pete williams reporting. well, today members of the house will get a top secret briefing on the boston bombings. meanwhile, the head of the senate intelligence committee is demanding the fbi explain why more wasn't done to investigate a tip that one of the suspects had possible extremist ties. nbc news' lieu russest -- lou russert is live with get good morning. >> reporter: thai, good morning, yes, senator dianne feinstein

makers. now in terms of how this is played out on capitol hill and other areas, let's talk about immigration, obviously, it will be debated to a larger degree. this is how the bombing events in boston played out in that hearing against senator schumer and grassly. >> i say that particularly those who point out the terrible tragedy in boston as i would say a excuse for not doing a bill or delaying it many months or years. >> i never said get i never said that! >> reporter: so there you see it, a little bit of back and forth there about how the boston bombing parlays into an immigration bill. the main story here, though, is that we've sort of gotten past the initial arrests in this story. now, we're going to go into the all out investigation on capitol hill, something that usually brings to the public forefront a lot more details. >> all right, lou russert reporting from boston, thank you so much. well, in the midst of the

boston terror attack, we are learning of another terror plot. this one was thwarted troubling nonetheless. nbc news learned trains from the u.s. to canada were among the possible targets. stephanie goss has more now. >> reporter: the two suspects are not (indicating) citizens -- are not canadian citizens, they are charged with guiding direction. the u.s. learned that trains originating in the u.s. were among those scouted as possible targets. the investigation called operation smooth has been ongoing for the last year with help from the fbi and the u.s. department for homeland security. canadian authorities emphasize the plot was still in its planning stages, the public was not in imminent danger but these two suspects haed the capacity and intent to follow through. officials say there is no connection between these suspects and the boston marathon
